9/11 gave the US Government the excuse to see it citizens as potential Terrorist or criminal then the government has declared war on it citizens. These Laws can be abused to stop debate on policies, attack political opposition and any other people it deems to dislike or trust. These laws take the power from the people and give it to the government. New laws can in deed undermine United Nation Charters, believe me Bush’s laws past after 9/11 have pushed those laws. This power can also create a government which is a dictatorship or totalitarian. Yes they may stop Terrorism and criminal activity within the country, but not overseas which is where the threats are. Also it is unclear why they need these new laws, what have changed in the last 2 years that make the government need to legislate new laws. Fear isn’t a tool for government to use to control it citizens. Lastly it is the citizens which have the power in a democracy. Government are corruptible and will used and misuse the information for there own gains. Unless we want ditch democratic government and adopt a dictatorship or totalitarian government then we should adopt these laws.
